Microneedling is a rejuvenating treatment that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating your body’s natural collagen and elastin production. It helps smooth texture, soften fine lines, fade acne scars, and improve overall tone and radiance - revealing healthier, fresher skin.
SkinPen
At Bare Skin & Wellness, we use the SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device trusted for its precision, consistency, and unmatched safety. Each treatment uses a brand-new, sterile, single-use cartridge that is fully enclosed to prevent cross-contamination and ensure the highest level of hygiene. SkinPen provides true depth control for uniform results, with a precision-engineered anti-backflow design that maintains complete sterility throughout the process. The medical-grade stainless steel needles and enclosed motor deliver predictable, gentle results with minimal downtime.
Unlike many generic microneedling pens, SkinPen is backed by clinical research, FDA clearance, and advanced engineering that prioritize safety, consistency, and results. It’s a professional-grade treatment designed to deliver visible improvement in skin tone and texture while maintaining the clean, controlled environment your skin deserves.
